Hello my name is Chlamydosaurus kingii, but my friends call me frilly for short. My nickname comes from the fancy frill I have surrounding my neck. I use this for defense and of course to compete for the ladies. I live in the forests of Australia, where I enjoy spending my days perched in the tree, basking in the sun, and foraging for ants. Take a trip down under and see what us frillies are all about!
